I am trying to use cop to prove floyd-warshall algorithm. This is the

Does anyone know how to do this?

I think the first step would be to write this algorithm up in the Gallina language and have Coq automatically check that it is always terminating.

I think it would help if you provide some context :) Here are some interesting questions which make it easier to help: Do you want to obtain a verified implementation (e.g. by extraction to OCaml)? Or are you only interested in verifying the algorithm mathematically? Did you pick the exercise yourself, or is it part of a course / book? How much experience with Coq do you already have?
